10 Predictions For Erick Rowan's WWE Future

4. Battle Of Giants Against Luke Harper

Erick Rowan and Luke Harper have been at loggerheads before, and it makes sense to assume they are going to be again. Rowan vs. Harper screams out mid card fare on Pay-Per-View, and it's a must at some point in the near future. If Rowan does target The Wyatt Family when returning from injury, he'll go after Braun Strowman first. However, Harper will become physically involved. That could lead to a series of matches between the pair, with Bray Wyatt pulling the strings. Going further, it'd be even more interesting if Bray started claiming that the winner of the series would have a spot in the Wyatt clan, whilst the winner would be cast out. That would add a layer of intrigue to the bouts, instead of them being meaningless. Admittedly, Rowan vs. Harper is never likely to be a technical classic, but it wouldn't need to be. Fans would simply be expecting the big men to trade blows, and work at a slower pace. There's room on the card for matches such as these, because it'd add some variety. Erick Rowan also badly needs to have a good run of well-received single matches to help establish him.
